With the US government wanting to ban certain oils from restaurants, the Australian government wanting to ban cheese ads from kids TV, and Europe banning naming non-Greek feta cheese, feta cheese. Should they call it "I can't believe it's not Feta Cheese....Just because it's from Denmark"? How many of you think this is all rediculous?You can eat raw oysters, and buy unpasteurized orange juice, but not unpasteurized cheese. By this logic, shouldn't raw oysters be banned?Shouldn't parents decide how much cheese to feed their children? Shouldn't restaurants and restaurant goers decide what kind of oil they'll have? Remeber, most restaurants in the US voluntarily stopped using lard.Isn't it silly we have such stringent food laws yet import tons of food from CHINA that has almost NO food saftey laws, where food often contains inedible toxins?

I think they're stupid too. I think I'm smart enough to figure out that anything from a fast food place is bad, regardless of whether it has trans-fats or not. Making a FF restaurant get rid of trans-fat oil still isn't going to lure me in.I don't get it, I grew up in the 70's and 80's eating junk food and didn't get fat. It's because I played outside a lot and rode my bike a lot. I don't want Big Brother (Gov't) telling me what I can and can't eat. If people would just watch what they put in their mouths, we wouldn't need Big Brother to step in.
